6.7 DBMS Job Status

This category of metrics provides information on the DBMS job status.

6.8 Duplicate Targets

This category of metrics provides information on duplicate targets.

6.9 Job Dispatcher Performance

This category of metrics provides information on the performance of job dispatcher.

6.10 New Group Security Violations

This category of metrics provides information on the security violations on new groups.

6.11 New Target Security Violations

This category of metrics provides information on the security violations on new targets.

6.12 No Agents

This category of metrics provides information on no agents.

6.13 Notification Method Performance

This category of metrics provides information on the performance of notification methods.

6.14 Notification Performance

This category of metrics provides information on the performance of notifications.

6.15 Notification Status

This is a Management Agent metric intended to send out of band notifications when the Notification system is determined to be in a critical state.

6.15.1 Average Delivery Time (ms)

This metric should be used in conjunction with Notifications Waiting for the particular notification type to help determine if a notification problem is becoming worse. If the notifications waiting is increasing along with the average delivery time, then the problem is most likely in the delivery, not the number of notifications itself. Delivery time problems can be related to network problems or resource constraints.

Data Source

The data for this metric comes from entries in the mgmt_system_performance_log where name=<method_name>||_TOTAL_DELIVERY_TIME

User Action

If the value is steadily increasing perform the following user actions:

  1. Check the Errors page for errors logged by Notification Delivery.

  2. Check for resource constraints along the notification delivery path� e.g. network errors, email or snmp servers being down etc.

6.15.2 Cleared Group Security Violations

This metric collects the information about the cleared violations on all groups of targets having security policies defined for the member targets. The number of cleared violations will increase with more violations getting rectified. This is used to trend the rate of fix of security policy violations.

Data Source

The data for this metric comes from entries in the mgmt_policies, mgmt_violations and mgmt_flat_target_assoc.

User Action

If the number of cleared violations is static or there are no cleared violations, check the security policy violations and ensure that the violations are rectified as recommended by the policy.

6.15.3 Cleared Target Security Violations

This metric collects the information about the cleared violations on all targets having security policies defined for them. The number of cleared violations will increase with more violations getting rectified. This is used to trend the rate of fix of security policy violations.

Data Source

The data for this metric comes from entries in the mgmt_policies, mgmt_violations and mgmt_flat_target_assoc.

User Action

If the number of cleared violations is static or there are no cleared violations, check the security policy violations and ensure that the violations are rectified as recommended by the policy.

6.15.4 DBMS Job Bad Schedule

This metric flags a DBMS job whose schedule is invalid. A schedule is marked 'Invalid' if it is scheduled for more than one hour in the past, or more than one year in the future. An invalid schedule means that the job is in serious trouble.

Data Source

The user_jobs.next_time table in the Management Repository.

User Action

If the job schedule is invalid, the DBMS job should be restarted. To do this:

  1. Copy down the DBMS Job Name that is down from the row in the table. This DBMS Job Name is 'yourDBMSjobname' in the following example.

  2. Logon to the database as the repository owner.

  3. Issue the following SQL statement:

    select dbms_jobname 
      from mgmt_performance_names 
      where display_name='yourDBMSjobname';
    
    
  4. If the dbms_jobname is 'myjob', then issue the following SQL statement:

    select job
      from all_jobs
      where what='myjob' ;
    
    
  5. Copy down the jobid.

  6. Force the job into the broken state so that it can be restarted by specifying the following DBMS job command and parameters:

    dbms_job.broken(jobid,true)

  7. Verify that the job has been marked as broken by using this SQL statement:

    select what, broken
      from all_jobs
      where broken='Y';
    
    

    You should see the job in the results.

  8. Once you've verified that the DBMS job is marked broken, restart the job with the following DBMS job command and parameters:

    dbms_job.run(jobid)

6.15.5 DBMS Job Processing Time, % of Last Hour

The percentage of the past hour the job has been running.

Data Source

The mgmt_system_performance_log table in the Management Repository.

User Action

If the value of this metric is greater than 50%, then there may be a problem with the job. Check the System Errors page for errors reported by the job. Check the Alerts log for any alerts related to the job.

6.15.6 DBMS Job UpDown

The down condition equates to the dbms_job "broken" state. The Up Arrow means not broken.

Data Source

The broken column is from the all_users table in the Management Repository.

User Action

Determine the reason for the dbms job failure. Once the reason for the failure has been determined and corrected, the job can be restarted through the dbms_job.run command.

To determine the reason the dbms job failed, take the following steps (replacing myjob with the displayed name of the down job):

  1. Copy down the DBMS Job Name that is down from the row in the table. This DBMS Job Name is 'yourDBMSjobname' in the following example.

  2. Log onto the database as the repository owner.

  3. Issue the following SQL statement:

    select dbms_jobname 
      from mgmt_performance_names 
      where display_name='yourDBMSjobname';
    
    
  4. If the dbms_jobname is 'myjob', then issue the following SQL statement:

    select job
      from all_jobs
      where what='myjob';
    
    
  5. Using the job id returned, look for ORA-12012 messages for this jobid in the alerts log and trace files and try to determine and correct the problem.

The job can be manually restarted through the following database command:

execute dbms_job.run (jobid);

6.15.7 Files Pending Load

The number of files waiting for the loader to process, sampled every 10 minutes.

It tells how well the group is compliant with policy rules.

Data Source

The data for the metric comes from entries in the MGMT_POLICY_ASSOC_EVAL_SUMM.

User Action

If the value increases steadily, perform the following:

  1. Check the group�s policy rule data in Policy Violations tab and check for the individual compliance score of the policy rules of the member targets and self-target.

  2. Concentrate on policy rules, which have lesser compliance score and try to resolve the corresponding policy rule violations manually or through automatic corrective actions.

6.15.9 Group Security Compliance

This metric is used to collect the compliance trend of all the groups of targets w.r.t the security policies defined on the member targets. The security compliance score is an indication of the security health of a target. A score of 100 indicates full compliance and a score of 0 indicates no compliance.

Data Source

The data for this metric comes from entries in the mgmt_policy_assoc_eval_summ.

User Action

It helps to show the trend data on how many targets of the group lies in good compliance score range and how many are in poor compliance score range.

The metric is collected for every 6 hours (360 minutes).

Data Source

The compliance score of policies evaluated is in the mgmt_policy_assoc_eval_summ table.

User Action

If the average compliance score is coming down check the security policy violations in the Security At a Glance page. Identify the violating policies and fix the violation. Details of the violations and their policies can be had from the Policy Violations page.

6.15.11 Group Violations

This metric gives the sum of the violations of all policy rules associated with member targets of the group and self-target. Along with the violations count, it has the violation level also to tell whether it is Critical/Warning/Informational violation. It helps to show the trend overview of group policy violations data. This metric is collected for every 6 hours (360 minutes).

Data Source

The data for the metric comes from entries in the MGMT_POLICY_ASSOC_EVAL_SUMM.

User Action

If the value increases steadily, perform the following:

  1. Check the policy violations of the group target and its member targets.

  2. Give more priority to Critical violations, then warning and informational. Check the policy rules causing the policy violations in policy violations tab page.

  3. Try to resolve the violations through automatic corrective actions or manual actions.

6.15.12 Job Dispatcher Job Step Average Backlog

When this number grows steadily, it means the job scheduler is not able to keep up with the workload.

User Action

This is the sum of job steps whose next scheduled time is in the past - job steps eligible to run but not yet running. If the graph of this number increases steadily over time, the user should take one of the following actions:

  • Increase the em.jobs.shortPoolSize, em.jobs.longPoolSize and em.jobs.systemPoolSize properties in the web.xml file. The web.xml file specifies the number of threads allocated to process different types of job steps. The short pool size should be larger than the long pool size.

    Property Default Value Recommended Value Description
    em.jobs.shortPoolSize 10 10 50 Steps taking less than 15 minutes
    em.jobs.longPoolSize 8 8 - 30 Stars taking more than 15 minutes
    em.jobs.systemPoolSize 8 8 - 20 Internal jobs (e.g. agent ping)

  • Add another Management Service on a different host.

Check the job step contents to see if they can be made more efficient.

6.15.13 Job Dispatcher Processing Time, % of Last Hour

An increasing value would mean the collection workers are falling behind and would need to be increased. The collections waiting to run could be high initially on system startup and should ideally go down towards zero.

Data Source

The data for this metrics come from entries in mgmt_collection_tasks table which holds all the list of collections.

6.18.4 Number of Workers

The total number of workers that were processing the collections.

Data Source

User Action

This metric checks for the following:

  • Is the Management Repository database up and accessible?

    If the Management Repository database is down, start it. If 'Invalid Username or Password' error is displayed, verify that the name and password for the oracle_emrep target is the same as the repository owner's name and password.

  • Is at least one Management Service running?

    If a Management Service is not running, start one.

  • Is the Repository Metrics dbms job running?

    If the DBMS job is down or has an invalid schedule, it should be restarted by following the instructions in the User Action section of the help topic for the DBMS Job Bad Schedule metric.
